Winchester has set the world standard in superior handgun ammunition performance and innovation for more than a century. And to millions of hunters and shooters worldwide, the name "Winchester" means quality and performance - and the most complete, versatile and high-performance line of handgun ammunition in the world.

In addition, for more than a century, Winchester has been the first to answer the call to arms by producing billions of rounds of small-caliber ammunition for the United States military and its allies. So, no matter what the sport, game or circumstances, you can always depend on every handgun cartridge in the Winchester Ammunition line to perform - as promised

Winchester RANGER is hard to find and features a jacketed hollow point bullet that expands on impact for maximum stopping power. This ammunition is new production, non-corrosive, in boxer primed, reloadable brass cases. This ammunition is bonded which helps prevent core/jacket separation making this the round of choice when you face a potential deadly encounter.

This is top of the line, American-made defense ammo - it doesn't get any better than this for personal protection.

Ballistics Test Summary

How does Winchester 180 Grain compare to other .40 S&W (Smith & Wesson) self-defense loads? We conducted some tests with
Clear Ballistics synthetic gelatin to find out. Following the FBI’s test protocol, we fired five rounds
into the gel with a barrier of heavy clothing. We used a Glock 27 because the short barrel is similar
to the type of compact handguns that are most likely to be carried concealed. Images of the fired bullets
suspended in the gelatin are in the graphic above.

We measured the penetration depth of each bullet and then recovered them from the gel to measure
the expanded diameter. You can find all of that data in the chart at the bottom of this page.
Photos of the recovered bullets are below on the left and a slow motion video of the first bullet fired
into the gel is down on the right.

If you’d like to know more about our ballistic gelatin testing and see the results from over 150
other self-defense loads, check out the article on Lucky Gunner Labs.

Pricing was great, ordering was simple and product arrived as promised. Great transaction.
I received the ammo two weeks before my XDM40 arrived. I haven't shot it yet but expect good quality.

I was suprized at the difference the "Bonded" bullet made. I use it for self-defense protection. It really packs a punch. I practice with 2 liter soda bottles & gal. milk jugs with frozen water & also with water soaked phone books. Mushrooms & groups well at 20'. These rounds are getting harder to come by. Thanks Lucky Gunner!!!!!!
